	In theory the use of notes is pretty straight forward in CL notation. To play a c, you can simply use the letter <code>c</code>. If you want the c to be followed by a g, write <code>cg</code>. To determine the ~~length~~ of a note, simply put a number between 1 and 9 for the amount of beats right after the note, the default value here is 2, so <code>c</code> equals <code>c2</code>. A short way to write a note with the ~~length~~ of 4 beats, is to use the capital letter that describes that note, e.g. <code>C</code> being the same as <code>c4</code>. A capital letter with a ~~length~~ will be treated just like a lowercase letter with a ~~length~~ though.		In theory the use of notes is pretty straight forward in CL notation. To play a c, you can simply use the letter <code>c</code>. If you want the c to be followed by a g, write <code>cg</code>. To determine the duration of a note, simply put a number between 1 and 9 for the amount of beats right after the note, the default value here is 2, so <code>c</code> equals <code>c2</code>. A short way to write a note with the duration of 4 beats, is to use the capital letter that describes that note, e.g. <code>C</code> being the same as <code>c4</code>.

	Now you can also alter the pitch of every note by a semitone. To raise it, use <code>#</code> between the note and its ~~length~~, to lower it, use a <code>.</code> as an equivalent of ♭. If we take our short melody from above and lower every e to an e flat (e♭), we will get the following result:		Now you can also alter the pitch of every note by a semitone.

	Since music is not only defined by notes and their ~~length~~ but also by tempo, we can change the tempo by using <code>@</code> and the desired beats per minute. For Clan Lord we can only use 60 to 180 bpm though, but we can speed up by using <code>@+</code> and slow down with <code>@-</code> and the amount by how much we want to change it.

			In Clan Lord we can use the range of three octaves reaching from <code>c</code> to <code>b</code>. They are indicated by three different characters while everything coming after <code>\</code> will be in the lowest octave, the middle one is activated by <code>=</code> and the highest with <code>/</code>. If no octave is specified yet, Clan Lord will always use the middle octave per default. Some [[instruments]] are even capable to play one more note above the <code>/</code>-scale by using <code>/b#</code>.
			<blockquote>\cdefgab=cdefgab/cdefgabb#</blockquote>

			Also you can go one octave up by using <code>+</code> or down with <code>-</code>.
			<blockquote>=cdefgab+cdefedc-bagfedc</blockquote>

			So now we can play our little melody in three different pitches:
			<blockquote>\c8p4de.c8e.6fDpf1g1E.Dc8p8=c8p4de.c8e.6fDpf1g1E.Dc8p8/c8p4de.c8e.6fDpf1g1E.Dc8</blockquote>
